LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz Vice President Maryam Nawaz has refused to accept the results of the Azad Kashmir election after Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf swept the polls.
Taking to Twitter on Monday, Nawaz claimed that her party fought hard but it was not easy to deal with “fraud”.
“I have not accepted the results and will not. I have not even acknowledged the results of this fake government. Congratulations to the workers and voters. What will be the course of action on this shameless fraud, the party will decide soon, God willing,” she said.
“PML-N has fought a very good election, has fought hard. It is not easy to deal with all the centres of state and power and fraud. I would like to commend all the voters and workers of PML-N for their courage and bravery. I am very proud of them.”
On the other hand, Pakistan Peoples Party chief Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari said his party has emerged as the largest opposition party in Kashmir despite vote irregularities.
Bhutto, in a tweet, said PTI resorted to violence and rigging in the elections, insisting that Election Commission failed to take action against the ruling party for violating electoral discipline.
Bilawal also lauded the party’s Azad Kashmir chapter and said he was incredibly proud of them for putting up a good fight and securing three additional seats from last time.
The statements came after the ruling party emerged as the single largest party in a tight race to elect the legislative assembly in Azad Kashmir, grabbing 25 of 45 seats up for grab.
Typically, the Kashmir vote has been won by the ruling party. Analysts said this race was tighter than usual.
The PPP appeared to be leading with 10 seats while the PML-N has six, Raja Azhar Iqbal, a focal person for the Kashmir election commission, said, adding that two seats seemed to be going to the local groups.
About 3.2 million people are registered to vote, he said.
